Description: | Eary Medieval silver coin: penny of Edward the Martyr, minted by Leofric at Ipswich. North 763 / Spink 1142.This coin has also been recorded as EMC 2011.0092. Dr Martin Allen has commented that "the coin is from the same dies as J.C. Sadler, The Ipswich Mint c.973-c.1210 A.D. Volume I. Eadgar to Aethelred II c.973-c.1016 A.D. (2010), p. 30, Fig. 13, and from the same obverse die as a coin of Wilebeart (Sadler, p. 31, Fig. 14). Sadler records only four coins of Ipswich in the reign of Edward the Martyr (two of Leofric and two of Wilebeart), but a coin of a third moneyer, Waetferth, has been recorded by EMC recently (EMC 2010.0166)."
